Launch
On April 21, 1971, this station signed on as WZAM-FM under the ownership of Broadcast Enterprises, Inc., (who had in turn acquired it from the original permit holders Duke Broadcasting Co. on November 1, 1970) with 31,000 watts of power at 94.9 MHz. In 1972, the station changed its callsign to WKSJ. In 1974, the licensee changed to Capitol Broadcasting Corp. Later in the 1970s, former AM sister station WZAM (now WIJD) changed its callsign to WKSJ which forced a change in this station's call letters to the current WKSJ-FM.

For legal and accounting purposes, the licensee of WKSJ-FM applied to the FCC to shift the license from Capitol Broadcasting Corp. (A West Virginia Corporation) to Capitol Broadcasting Corp. (An Alabama Corporation) in December 1985. The transfer was approved by the FCC on December 24, 1985.

The deal was approved by the FCC on December 13, 1993, and the transaction was consummated on February 15, 1994. This would prove to be a very short-lived ownership as in January 1994, WAVH-FM, Inc., reached an agreement to sell this station to Pourtales Radio Partnership. The deal was approved by the FCC on February 10, 1994, and the transaction was consummated on February 14, 1994.

The deal was approved by the FCC on March 28, 1996, and the transaction was consummated on June 10, 1996.

The deal was approved by the FCC on May 8, 1996, and the transaction was consummated on May 31, 1996.
